CENTAUR™ SPACED INTERMEDIATE STRAP
Data sheet DS68E
Centaur Spaced Intermediate Strap
Spaced trefoil installation
Heavy duty intermediate strap, for use in conjunction with the Centaur® Single cable saddle, when installed in a spaced-out trefoil formation
Specially designed for High Voltage, snaked cable systems
Maintains phase spacing between single cables and offers additional short circuit restraint
Project specific design, built to a specified cable diameter (Ø)
6000 series aluminium
Designed, tested and manufactured in accordance with IEC 61914
Please consult Ellis for size and spacing availability
Testing Summary
Centaur Spaced Intermediate Straps have been tested in line with the International Standard ‘Cable Cleats for Electrical Installations’. As IEC 61914 is part of the low voltage directive it is not possible to follow the standard exactly and thus deviations have been made in areas. Typical results are detailed below, please note that these testing values are maximums and safety factors appropriate to your application should be used:
| Property Classification | Clause IEC 61914 | Units / Classification | Test Data |

| UV resistance | 6.5.1.2 | UV resistant | Metallic frame shields all polymer components |
| Corrosion resistance | 6.5.2.2 | Refer to Ellis | - |
| Impact rating | 6.3.5 | Very heavy | Pass |
| Flame propagation test | 10.0, 10.1 | Application time ≥30s | Pass |
| Axial load rating | 6.4.3, 9.4 | Newtons (N) | Refer to Ellis |
| Lateral load rating | 6.4.2, 9.3 | Newtons (N) | Refer to Ellis |
| Resistance to electromechanical force (short circuit testing) | 6.4, 6.4.4, 9.5 | - | 227kA (Report No. 2024.10.35.0745) Cable = Ø58mm 270mm phase spacing @ 1.2m Spacing calculated force 39,420N |
